Isilim is a biannual Dumi magazine, published by the Dumi Kirat Rai Funsikim.
Funsikim is oriented towards the preservation, promotion and development of the Dumi language and culture. Isilim was first published in 1999. The meaning of Isilim is 'the bud of the chestnut, a holy plant among the Kirat Rai community'. The nut is occasionally used by Dumi shamans.
